UNDERWATER DIGITAL VIDEO


For many of the field projects on animal behavior conducted by Roger Hanlon there is supporting data on SD and HD digital video.

Many of these sequences are highly unique (and biologically rich) due to the diving methods and behavioral sampling routines developed by Dr. Hanlon and his colleagues.

Contact Basia Goszczynska concerning viewing, use or sale of this footage.

Examples:

  1. Loligo pealeii skin close-ups.

  2. NEW DISCOVERY: first mimic octopus in the Atlantic ocean. We studied and filmed this species in Saba, Netherlands Antilles, in October 2005. Octopus defilippi mimicks the coloration and swimming behavior of the common peacock flounder Bothus lunatus.

  3. Squid sexual selection and mating behavior:
    • Caribbean Reef Squid, Sepioteuthis sepioidea, Cayman Islands
    • The Long-finned Squid, Loligo pealei, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA
    • The California Market Squid, Loligo opalescens, Monterey, California, USA

  4. Giant cuttlefish, Sepia apama, of Australia:
    • fighting behavior
    • mating and mate guarding
    • behavioral aspects of sperm competition
    • female mimicry by small males
    • female choice
    • camouflage

  5. Flamboyant cuttlefish of Indonesia.

  6. The moving rock trick.

  7. Common Caribbean Octopus vulgaris camouflage change.

  8. How squid change color.
